Living in New Jersey

New Jersey’s population density can make the state seem like it’s wall to wall people everywhere you go.

Depending on the season, you can indulge in freshly picked blueberries, corn, lavender, cucumbers, and Jersey’s famous tomatoes.

If you’re looking for ways to unwind in nature, start by visiting any of the 11 state forests. You can hike, bike, kayak, fish, camp, ride horses, and much more. New Jersey is also among the best birdwatching states in the country.

The Jersey Shore region is another big draw for locals and visitors alike. From the casinos and nightclubs of Atlantic City to gorgeous Victorian homes in Cape May to the live music acts that perform at the famed Stone Pony in Asbury Park, the Shore has something for everyone.
